A very Green Mardi Gras [open]

[Alexandrea]

The blonde had dug out everything she could find from the first Mardi Gras celebration at the Metronome, sending Kitty over to the club with a couple of hard bodies borrowed from Kira dancing beefcake show in tow to do the heavy lifting. Everything that could be reused was being reused, or repurposed. Even Alexandrea’s costume had been recycled.

Arriving soon after Alex and Harry coordinated with the drivers with the floats. Soon all of them were lined up all along the street in front of the Met and while the Police Commissioner arranged for a few uniforms to direct traffic around the club, Alexandrea brought in the refreshments. The food at least was all new.

Satisfied with the arrangements, The last few details were quickly wrapped up with a flip of a switch for the spotlights on the roof and a quick post on the crownet.

‘Happy Mardi Gras, everyone! If you are reading this? Then you must not already be at a party so come on down to the Metronome and celebrate with the Society of Allurist! Come on over and let us inspire you tonight! You won’t be sorry!’

[Enver Marshall II]

It was a fluke he logged into any crownet area lately. Enver tried to avoid it, unless he was trolling certain people; primarily the "Administrator" person. Enver hadn't decided who was worse-the Crow guy or this new guy. Then again, maybe they were one in the same. It was possible, wasn't it? Enver couldn't be the only actor in the city and anyone could be anyone, or anything on line.

There had been a slew of activity going on in the Society's walls; something about a....party? Well, that was right up THIS Allurist's alley. And since one of the hostesses was going to be Alexandrea herself, how could Enver refuse? After a few jokes that went awry or were backfired on him, Enver decided that he would make a point to stop in and see the fellow Allurist.

But, what the hell was he supposed to wear? Everyone seemed to want to dress up, but Enver wasn't a costume type of guy. Not unless he was half in the bag, or higher than a kite and the guy just wasn't either of those things tonight. So, he opted to change into a dark blue button down, with a matching colored tie and a purple jacket over the dark blue. Enver could be wild. Sober. That's what he told himself as Enver glanced down at his jeans and trainers, then moved out of his work office and caught the train to the other side of town.

The first thing he noticed was the decor and it caused Enver to grin a little and shake his head. Then, he noticed Alexandrea. The Allurist of the hour; or in this case, a few hours. "Alexandrea." Enver flashed her a charming grin as he made his way around the nameless people he didn't care about, and over to her. "The place looks great. You've outdone yourself. You did this all yourself?" He asked, removing his 'sunglasses,' and stuffing them in the pocket of his coat.

[Kira]

Kira got ready for the party, her hair was left down but was in soft curls. She remembered the last Mardi Gras. A lot of things changed since then she thought as she pulled out the outfit she wore then. Might as well bring it back out again. She doubt Reggie would be interested in going but she gave him a heads up if he wanted to go.

She quickly headed over and watched her BeefCakes work.

"This wasn't in the job duties when I was hired." Cody complained as soon as he saw his boss.

Kira grinned, "You're getting paid. You could stand to beef up some more anyway." she said. She knew he'd be the one to complain, the others had no problems doing this odd job.

She looked around the place, "It looks pretty good." she said, not really to him as she walked off to find Lexy. She wasn't alone, the first guest of the evening was Enver. "Hey Lexy. I hope my boys been doing a good job and not goofing off." she said. She shot a glance at Cody who quickly went back to work.

[Aden-OCarrol]

Got text from His valkyrie 4th time that night. Mostly cause she not seen or heard from in in two weeks. All but this one were the normal one he loved yet did not respond to, This one was different as he reads the text he talks out load to himself" Party ''''' umm.... not saying she wants me to come, yet saying there is a party of I want to come. I feel like this a trap. Let go see what trouble I can get into!". After reading the rest of the text seem he should wear fancy clothes. He kinda laughed, being to him sunday best was black shirt, jeans and his leather jacket. Which pretty much what he always wore.

He looks at where she said it would be. Looks up it on his phone." Not bad ride". Goes to the bathroom in some girl's house he had just meet, he at opens his small travel bag. Cleans up and put in his beard balm" Apples woman like apples right.". Grabs his bag, finds a pin rights a note " Had fun, you were great. Was not sure what I write so I am doing this" Draws a giraffe with stick dude riding it with a sword" the signs it. Dude from the bar.

Walks out get on his bike and heads to where her text says the party should be.

[Johannes (DELETED 9330)]

One suit. That was all he owned. One suit that would somehow classify as sormething more formal or could be labeled as evening wear. Not that he wouldn't own more if he could. Fashion did interest him somewhat, but he imply couldn't afford more than just the one right now.

He entered the club, not really knowing what he would find or expect to find there tonight. One thing was certain: if he was to unearth the secrets of this city's nightlife, he wasn't going to find out from behind the screen of that old laptop of his. No, he had to dive right in. Flashbacks from being the awkward wallflower during college flashed in front of his mind's eye. He didn't do crowds back then. Come to think of it, he didn't do them quite well now either.

He made his way past and through little groups towards the refreshments. Always a good place to start and even if the whole undertaking tonight was a fluke, he would at least have had a decent meal. Well, more decent than many evenings at least.

Having settled on a drink and some fingerfood, he assumed the classical 'casual' stance, back to the bar, leaning into it a bit, observing the crowd. At first you'd just see a crowd, a group of people, but soon enough individuals would start popping out. People of interest. You could always tell...it was in the way the walked, moved, flicked their hair back when they laughed at a bad joke. The social predators, the players. Yes, for now, this little spot was just perfect.

[Aden-OCarrol]

Getting off his bike and combing his hair and fixing his beard." That's better". Put his helmet on the bike and walks up to the party. As he get closer he can feel he's near her. After that night when he's gets close to her he feels it weird way. He can't even explain to him self yet to others he just knows he near. It's worse when she angry, he get cold chill in his bones. He wonders what she say. He hates this feeling, why dose he care what she things. She not his mother right!.Yet every time since that night. When he gets near her, he ready to fight any moment. Like attack dog on a least praying she lets him loose and rip their throats out. It was hard to control, did not take much one little push from her all it took. It was why he not answer her text over the two weeks. Using work as the reason , yet the truth was she made to to easy for him to kill and for moment she took way his demons that scared him. Yet he trusted her and only her yet the know know eacher that long.

Aden stopped little bit before he entered and took a deep breath." So human" he said to himself. Letting it out with a sigh and walking threw the doors. He strolled in Like he should be there, walked over to the bar set down, out of old habit.

[Kira]

Kira raised her head, she sensed that Dearg was nearby. "I'll be right back. My new childe is here and he needs a swift kick in the ***." she said. She turned around, her green eyes scanned the room for him. She headed towards the bar but made her way around so he wouldn't see her.

Once she was behind him, she flicked his ear. "Why are you avoiding me?" she growled softly. She didn't really believe his excuse of work all the time. She figured he couldn't pass up a party where there would be women here. Don't know how she ends up siring all the manwhores but it just happened. She was lucky with Reggie however.

"My best friend is here. She's family so you better behave yourself." Kira said to him as she moved in front of him. "She's over this way if you'd like to join us." she added before turning around and making her way back over to Lexy.

[Aden-OCarrol]

She flicked his ear, he new who it was. Aden slowly turned around as listen to her, he was about to answer when she started to walk a way. Aden reached out softly and grabbed for Kira wrist as she truned a way. Knowing touching her would get him hit latter or then but well worth it. When there eye locked for a moment,his eyes were full of battle lust and willing to kill. He let go of her wrist, His energy start to change becoming more aggressive yet only she could feel it. He had gained odd link with her least it how he felt about it . Then suddenly his eyes they turned black sold back like a great whites. It had happened before the day after she sired him it was not a shock. His energy had a sudden shift yet still should be only been felt by only her, it felt like his energy after she sired him when when in to the blood rage. His voice became hard rough and a bit feral. " Its harder to control around you. When your mood changes mine dose too. It so hard to not kill around you, even harder when you dont like them or angry. I when to come see at you work, I got close and it seem you pissed or more so aggravated with some one I almost came flying in, in a blood rage." His eyes slowly when back to normal." Sorry I grabbed you I..... I miss you yet...... I just........ Let go meet her." His voice changes to the normal tone she new. His other had was in a fist, a few drops of blood dripped out the side of his as he had squeezed it to hard. Then
Aden slowly stood up. He wonder if he see that he had gotten taller as well. He was 5'9 few months a go now he was 6'2 and packed on little more muscle too.

[Kira]

Kira turned when he touched her, her eyes shifted to that of a cat's and she was about ready to punch him. Her eyes narrowed when his energy started to shift. She had been trying to figure out what sort of link the two shared but since he had been keeping his distance she hadn't really thought about it that much. She closed her eyes a moment and took in a deep breath.

She thought back to work, all she could figure it was one of the many nights that she was about to kill Cody, not really but got pissed at the man a lot. Or it could have been one of the anti-vampire people who had been showing up. There was no telling. Her default setting for her mood seemed to be naturally let's kill.

"We need to work on that blood rage of yours." Kira replied, "Maybe some meditation or something.." she muttered. She wouldn't overly notice killers getting slightly bigger due to the fact they all tower over her at it is. She felt so damn short around them. Heels could only help so much.

She headed back to Lexy, "Lexy this is Dearg. Well, I call him that anyway." she said, "Dearg, this is Alexandrea."
